Benchmark does two things: we keep your numbers right, and we use them with you to make the clinic worth more. Here is what that looks like month to month, what is yours to do, and how the pieces fit.
Three steps, in order
| Step | What happens | What you keep |
|---|---|---|
| 1. The 10-Day Sprint $1,000 one time, covers the sprint only. No setup fee | Days 1 to 3, numbers straight: systems connected, your bookkeeper's close reviewed, your first scorecard. Days 4 to 8, leaks found in all seven places (Finance 6), each with a dollar figure, and a compliance check against your state's rules (Operations 5). Day 10, the read: a 30 minute call on what the numbers say, the three biggest leaks, and the 90 day plan. | The leak report, your compliance check, your first scorecard, a 90 day plan. Yours to keep whether or not you continue. |
| 2. The monthly scorecard | Your bookkeeper's close reviewed every month, or the books kept and closed by us with the bookkeeping add-on (Finance 4). The four page scorecard on business day ten, with the read: wins, risks, next moves. | Clean, closed months that a lender or a buyer can rely on, and a record of every decision. |
| 3. Your plan $2,299, $2,899 or $3,899 a month by revenue; over $3M, contact us | One plan, priced by trailing twelve month revenue (up to $1M, $1M to $2M, $2M to $3M; over $3M, contact us and we scope it with you). Every size gets the scorecard and a monthly cash flow statement after every close (where the cash went, and when the clinic can carry a device, a hire or a second room), the client area, a written monthly plan, at least one growth initiative executed with you every month (the goals page tracks it week by week), a cash forecast, the value tracker and your bookkeeper, CPA and attorney coordinated. Plus a monthly 45 minute owners' group call on Zoom, and an owners only chat coming soon. The services are the same for every client; only the fee changes with size. | A clinic that runs on numbers, and a growing list of initiatives done, each with its result recorded. |
Alongside any plan: a website built in house (Marketing 1), exit preparation (Advanced 6), brand and marketing rebuilds, opening a new location (Operations 10), hiring and provider pay plans (Operations 8), competitive intelligence (Marketing 6), and AI tools for the front desk (Operations 9). Ask and we quote it.
What we do, what you do
- Review your bookkeeper's close every month, or code the bank feeds, reconcile every account and close the month with the bookkeeping add-on
- Build the scorecard and write the read
- Find the leaks, negotiate the contracts, cancel the software
- Execute growth initiatives with you every month: memberships, pricing, provider pay, rebook, the funnel
- Keep the books the way a buyer will want to read them
- Coordinate with your CPA, payroll provider and attorney
- Answer questions within one business day
- Read the scorecard on business day ten and ask about anything
- Photograph receipts the day you spend
- Never move money to a personal account outside payroll without telling us
- Count inventory at month end (Operations 3)
- Make the decisions; we bring the options and the numbers
Why us
Nate LaBombard advised on $750M+ of healthcare deals as an investment banker at Baird and Stout.

That is the lens on everything in this library: what does a buyer pay for, and what do they punish.
